Born in Germany 1978 in a dark and rainy autumn night, grown
up in a small village in West Germany with strict Christian background. I was
drawing and fascinated by history, art and mythology since earliest childhood,
and had the dream to work at Walt Disney studios!

At the end of teenage years, I opened my eyes, deepened my
knowledge of pre-christian mythology and animism, and turned away from
monotheism.

After school I took a builders' education specialized on concreteworks.
After that I went back to school again to get a higher graduation.

One lucky day I met Astrid Köpfler (Drauf & Dran / Heaven and
Hell / Living Art, Germany) who took me as her apprentice in 2001. Eight busy
and successful years followed, where I toured through Scandinavian Viking
Markets, doing strictly traditional tattooing in the summer, and worked in
'Living Art Studio' the rest of the year.

2008 I got the invitation to work as a guest artist at Kunsten
på Kroppen, and the rest is (living) history...
